en-usDia Art FoundationEstablished in 1974, Dia Art Foundation is internationally recognized as one of the world's most influential contemporary art institutions. The name "Dia," taken from the Greek word meaning "through," was chosen to suggest the institution's role in enabling visionary artistic projects that might not otherwise be realized because of their scale or ambition.
The permanent collection consists of works by artists who came to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s, including Andy Warhol. The Dia Foundation specializes in large-scale, ephemeral, or site-specific art pieces that might not have a place in other collections. Dia’s founders wished to move beyond the scope of the traditional museum to provide a venue for the artists that inspired and excited them. Dia commissions and presents installations and exhibitions by prominent artists of the 1960s and 1970s as well as those of younger generations
Dia's publication program produces books in conjunction with selected exhibitions, scholarly volumes on the permanent collection, related publications, audio works on CD, and multimedia works. Dia books are available at the Dia:Beacon bookshop and on line at www.diabooks.org. http://www.diacenter.org
